Estar and quedar

Marcos R.A1Kwiziq community member

I understand that the permanent-temporary rule is not a good one to use for “ser” and “estar”. However a Spanish speaker told me that it is common to use “quedar” for the location of fixed items, such as buildings or roads, and “estar” for moveable items, such as people. Is this correct? Thanks.

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Ser vs Estar in Spanish: Using estar in Spanish (not ser) when talking about locations"
